Build Buildkite forms with Paperform

Buildkite is a hybrid CI/CD platform that lets you run fast, secure pipelines on your own infrastructure.

Paperform connects to Buildkite directly through Stepper workflows.

How Buildkite connects to Paperform

Direct methods run inside your Paperform account. Zapier and Make are there too if your team already uses them.

Stepper workflows

Direct

Run a Stepper workflow when someone submits your form: 7 Buildkite actions and 2 triggers, included in your Paperform account.

  1. Open Stepper from your Paperform account and create a workflow.
  2. Start it with the Paperform “New Submission” trigger and choose your form.
  3. Add a Buildkite step, connect your account and map the submission’s answers to its fields.

Buildkite actions in Stepper

  • Create Build
  • Cancel Build
  • Rebuild
  • Get Build
  • List Builds
  • Create Pipeline
  • Make HTTP Request

Buildkite events that can start a workflow

  • New Build
  • Build Finished

What your form sends to Buildkite

For example, with a Stepper workflow the “Create Build” action takes these fields. Map each one to a question on your form, and every submission fills them in.

Start with the one form whose data never quite lands where it should. Connect the rest when you're ready.
